Hi :)

I read this and the followup messages.  This situation is correct.
--disable-nls turns of usage of `gettext', but in Guile we still need to
be able to represent all codepoints and convert between them and many
encodings, which is an independent facility.  Disabling `gettext'
doesn't affect Guile's need for libiconv.

Regards,

Andy

Hello,

Tring to make guile-2.0.11 without NLS.

./configure --disable-nls --without-libiconv-prefix
fails with message:
checking whether libunistring was built with iconv support... no
configure: error: No iconv support.  Please recompile libunistring with iconv enabled.

Is this correct ?

(tested on Solaris10 x86.)
